Hey Whale Shark,
I was thinking about you today. I was thinking it's time to draw the line. Time to take a stand...
Are you still up to being publicly humiliated again this year?
If so, I think we should pick a date for the rematch. Is the third weekend of August good for you? Or, would you prefer the second or fourth?
Here's the challenge, if I understand it: 5K in Kits pool. Wetsuits, pull-buoys and bubble-wrap allowed. Eat or drink whatever you want. Start the same time. Bio breaks and naps in. No handicap for lane traffic. Body contact allowed. First person to complete the distance wins. Looser buys for the winner. (Not like the last time I kicked your ass *and* paid the bar tab!)
Cheerleaders and co-competitors allowed, but co-competitors have to survive the months of hazing and still have to buy a round for the winner of you or me.
You on?
The Mako Shark

Municipal Strike
Hey Whale Shark,
Puts a bit of a crimp in the training plans, doesn't it? I have one of those small kiddie pools, but apart from that, I'm beginning to resign myself to having to postpone the duel until next year. Thoughts?
What's with the rain? The strike?
Hey Whale Shark,
Have you been training in the rain? What's up with the duel if this strike closes the world's best pool for the primo weeks? Figure we'd get thrown out for swimming in a closed pool during the day? Shall we plan a midnight duel?
My arms are sore...
Good workout today, old Whale Shark!
Nice work trying to pull my trunks off in Kits Pools when I went to pass you. Mako sharks have long memories, you know. Be prepared to swallow some salt water when you least expect it.

Your problem is...

How's the training going, Whale Shark?
Chomp.
I hear you've not been training much, you big, stinky fish, you.
Chomp, chomp.
Watch your fins. I'm hungry.
Chomp. Chomp. Chomp.
Time's a wastin'
